OPSEC - Navy Operations Security
Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.
DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.
DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Son called. He was pleased with his score- 6th highest in his section. I guess this was the same subject he missed passing by 3/100th of a point. He seems happy. Through with school work at 9 but on his way to do laundry. Says tomorrow starts at 5:30 with dodge ball. They really do put in a long day. I am very proud. He seems to have grown up so much . He says he is still lazy but that is not the way it sounds to me.
